Question: I have noticed a few spots in the grass on one side of my house? Could it be something in the fertilizer that will go away or might it be a fungus?
Answer: We are seeing a whole lot of Ascochyta leaf blight all over Denver this year. The fungus is a leaf blight meaning it usually affects only the above ground growth, that being the visible grass blade or leaf. Its main point of entry is through injury from mowing with a dull blade along with the right weather patterns. This year, our weather has paved the way for this fungus and anybody who has a dull mower blade or is over-watering is getting this fungus.
Good news is, it usually subsides on its own over time, so be patient while it is active. You can read more about Ascochyta leaf blight at the Colorado State agricultural extension website.
